Critic assignment

Read completely kb/work/open-ended-work-economics/curiosity-exploration/README.md, kb/work/open-ended-work-economics/bootstrap-exploration/second-exploration-brief.md, kb/work/open-ended-work-economics/README.md, AGENTS.md and kb/work/COLLECTION.md. These bind purpose, scope, evidence, coordination, acceptance and stop conditions. No code, experiments, implementation, commits, extraction, deletion or library/index edits. No new source destination allocated; return ungrounded literature leads as leads, not source-backed conclusions. Existing grounded Quotes may support claims; source analysis is not support. Only A turn 1 had source mutation ownership. Choose methods and research judgments within scope; escalate purpose/authority changes, return partial on missing evidence/tools. Validate owned result. Distinguish source claims, documentary observations, conjectures and demonstrations; preserve strongest rival, discriminating evidence, recoverability needs and reason for parked alternatives. Keep learning value distinct from task benefit; do not force compression scores, text shortening or service-first admission. Fresh critic turn 3. Read current coordination/explorers and prior integrations; verify key actual-incumbent claims. Own only kb/work/open-ended-work-economics/curiosity-exploration/turn-03/critic.md. No delegation. Stress-test bounded clarification before named rivals: does it genuinely enable question origination or merely rename unconstrained exploration? What stops fluent promises earning renewal? Does selected opportunity broaden understanding rather than repeat held doctrine? Preserve qualitative inferential value and learning without service consumer. Name strongest alternative, discriminator and acquisition/retention consequences. 900-1400 words.
